It's a tiny ass screw thats Loctited. They'll send you more if you call them. I own over twelve Kershaws and have had zero issues; even after changing pocket clips. The issue is trivial at best.

@fredboy007 Trivial for you because like you stated you never had problems! Me like others on here have had many problems with there cheap shit! When i spend my money whether 2 or 200 dollars i want my moneys worth! did you see the od1 video attached here i got a new knife that was defective out of the box no screw problems but a bent blade and was made in the USA so there Quality Control sucks on a Global scale! And yes i am Bitching it is my Money and there Shity stuff!

That sucks. I got a tremor a while ago but its still been going strong

I experienced a similiar problem with a Buck Vantage a few weeks ago. I'm equally pissed. On the other hand, both my Kershaw knives rock. I've had no problems with them. Ironically, I purchased a Benchmade 940 because they are supposedly such "great" knives...........it turned out to be a flaming lemon. As much as Benchmade knives cost, I'm pissed to say the least. I'll never buy another one.

@Machi74005 Yea there all Junk i guess.

I just got my Kershaw Clash, it's insanely sharp. And I changed the clip position with no issues. My Spyderco Tenacious however...I removed the blade before disassembling the handle. 2 of the screws that are in handle came stripped, and it's impossible to remove them, so now I can't reassemble my Tenacious.

[cmseso]

Amen! Had some of the same problems so I've changed to Spyderco.

Hey dude, get in touch with customer support. They will fix for ya. Its just a "product", even Mercedes can go wrong. That is why you have warranty and customer service. I had screws bad on my ZT and Benchmade....its just a screw.

[DrWrongPaul]

Kershaw sucks and so do their reps.

[jmce3]

Wow, sounds like you're cursed with some blades. Hope you have better luck in the future. I would hate to spend good cash and keep getting problem blades.

i didnt even try to move the clip on my tremor. mine has hex screws my leeks clip screws stripped by looking at them. not the threads but the head where the bit goes in. ive always had acomplete torx set from craftsman. maybe the bits were too well made.

[moparmangmm]

Not to be rude but what did you expect kershaw sells there knives at Walmart there never going to be top of the line

[treeelizard]

ditto...i will no longer buy a knife with screws...it's a setup for failure most of the time...my kershaw 1660 ken onion is now clipless cause i wanted to move it and it changed the entire geometry of the knife...and i do have the correct tools and know how to use them...i had to adjust the other 3 frame screws to align it cause i did not want the clip on the wrong side...just my opinion...i do not claim to be an expert, but i do know what i want for my purchases
